This work, essentially Steiner's doctoral dissertation, which is
subtitled “Introduction to the Philosophy of Freedom.”
is just that: an essential work in the foundations of anthroposophy
in which the epistemological foundations of spiritual cognition are
clearly and logically laid forth.

This edition appears to have the same content as the 1963 edition above.
In this case, it was not bundled with any other book ... just the second
